I'm no wifi specialist, but I found this to be a very interresting talk: https://www.usenix.org/conference/lisa12/building-wireless-network-high-density-users There might be some useful tips in there ? _______________________________________________ Babel-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/babel-users
